In 1532, Francisco de Pizarro led fewer than two hundred men into the heart of the Inca Empire and brought a civilization of millions to its knees. What drove this man—from humble beginnings in Spain—to defy impossible odds and confront Atahualpa’s army of 30,000 warriors? Through striking reenactments and expert insight, the film explores how faith, greed, and unyielding ambition collided in one of history’s most shocking encounters, forever changing the fate of two worlds. Beyond the conquest, it delves into the man himself—visionary and tyrant, believer and betrayer—revealing how his thirst for glory became a symbol of both human courage and moral ruin. Set against the breathtaking landscapes of the Andes, this journey exposes the hidden cost of empire: the blood spilled, the cultures erased, and the myths that still echo through the ruins of Cuzco.
